Company Statement:

Hidden in the Andean mountains, yet in close proximity to Lima (Peru) and only 30km's from the 2.15Bt Cu-Mo-Ag Toromocho porphyry mine, Inca's Chanape Project is emerging as an exceptional porphyry prospect. With the most recent drill hole (CH-DDH012) producing 55m* of 2.3% Cu, 0.6g/t Au, 42.9g/t Ag; the second-but-last hole (CH-DDH011) producing 284m at 0.32% Cu, 83ppm Mo and 6.73g/t Ag; with known mineralisation extending over a vertical distance of 1.3km; and with major mining houses showing intense interest, perhaps use of the oft bromide idiom "world-class" is not without foundation when describing Inca's Chanape porphyry discovery.

(Note: Copper -Cu, Molybdenum -Mo, Silver - Ag, Gold - Au).

The latest drill hole (CH-DDH012) completed at Chanape produced our best intersection to date:

....and a clear indication is given: The porphyry at Chanape is in deed metal-bearing and it is producing ore-grade intersections even at this early stage of development. Chanape has huge upside potential with only a fraction drill tested. In this context, a suitable comparison to Toromocho is made. The 2.15Bt, Chinalco-owned Toromocho porphyry is mineralised in Cu-Mo-Ag - like Chanape. Toromocho is set to produce 300,000 tonnes of Cu-metal per year for 30 years.

In recent mapping we have discovered the largest breccia pipe to date on the property. Roughly 200m x 200m, this breccia pipe, and other newly discovered breccia's around it, sits at the top of Mount Chanape. With intrusive rocks also identified in the vicinity, extensive phyllic and argillic alteration, with known strong gold mineralisation in the area and a strong chargeability anomaly, this hitherto untested area could well prove to host something quite special.

The future looks fine for Inca. We are attracting the attention of major mining houses, we are expanding our drill permit capacity to 22,500m and 61 platforms and we are maturing our less-talked about, Peruvian projects as candidates for the next "Chanape".

It is our sincere intention to maximise shareholder value through the development of Chanape; through the generation of possible strategic partnerships and through the identification of next-gen projects with similar potential.

EXPLORATION AND MINING IN PERU

Peru plays an important part of the global minerals exploration and mining industry and is ranked seventh in the world of mining production, slightly behind the US, and slightly ahead of South Africa @ $27,063 million. Many of the major global mining houses are present and active in Peru, including inter alia; Aluminium Corporation of China Limited (Chinalco), Anglo American Inc., Barrick Gold Corporation, BHP-Billiton Limited, Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc., Gold Fields Limited, Newmont Mining Corporation, Rio Tinto Group and Southern Copper Group. These companies either currently operate mines, or are proceeding through feasibility stages of project development, or both.

In Peru the mining sector represents 14.7% of the country's GDP (2013), 72% of total exports (US$21B in 2010) and 50% of income tax revenue. Anticipated mining expenditure in Peru over the next decade is approximately worth US$50B. In terms of world production, Peru ranks first in global silver production, third in global zinc production, fourth in global copper production and sixth in terms of global gold production. In 2010 Peru produced 5.25 million ounces of gold. The country also produces significant quantities of molybdenum, lead, tin and tungsten.

Yet despite being a premier mining destination, despite copper production increasing 100% since 1998, gold production up 88% and silver production up 89%, despite Peru attracting massive resources investment, Peru is considered under-explored. This status is among the principal reasons the Company sought and successfully acquired exploration projects in Peru.

The results of the latest drill holes (CH-DDH011 & CH-DDH012) and the latest round of mapping (Phase III) have propelled Chanape to a new phase of development and heightened expectation. Porphyry and porphyry-related mineralisation is now known to extend over a vertical range of 1.3kms, from the highest point of the project area, the summit of Mount Chanape, to the deepest drilling to date – at 1,047m depth. This vertical column of mineralisation is more than one and half times the height of Burj Khalifa (the tallest building in the world), more than four times the height of the Westfield Tower in Sydney and ten times the height of the London Eye. It contains zones of ore-grade mineralisation of copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), gold (Au) and silver (Ag).

The Moquegua Project comprises three separate prospects called Jose Alonso, Agua Blanco and Oscar Alberto. Moquegua is centred approximately 60km south east of Arequipa, within the Palaeocene Southern Peru Copper Porphyry Belt. The three prospects, defining a triangular area of approximately 40km x 15km, are in close proximity to several substantial operating mines, including Freeport McMoran’s +3Bt Cerro Verde Mine and Southern Copper Corporation’s Cuajone porphyry mine and Metminco’s Los Calatos Deposit.

OWNERSHIP & TENURE

The concessions that comprise the three Moquegua prospects are 100% owned by the Company’s Peruvian subsidiary – Inca Minerales.

- Jose Alonso comprises two concessions and has a total area of 2,000ha. It is located in the district of Torata in the Moquegua Department. The closest town, Caimán, is three kilometres from the project. There are no cultivated lands within the project area.

- Agua Blanco comprises four concessions and has a total area of 2,000ha. It is located in the district of Quinistaquallas in the Moquegua Department. The closest town, Agua Blanco, is one kilometre from the project. There are no cultivated lands within the project area.

- Oscar Alberto comprises two concessions and has a total area of 1,000ha. It is located in the district of La Capilla in the Moquegua Department. The closest town, Caimán, is two kilometres from the project. Cultivated lands cover approximately 10% of the project area.

FUTURE EXPLORATION

As the Company’s flagship Chanape Project matures, so is the intention to mature the Company’s southern projects. To this end Inca has commenced preliminary exploration at Moquegua with results pending.

All the Company’s Moquegua prospects are considered prospective for Cu-Mo-Au porphyry They are early stage exploration with known mineralisation and porphyry-style alteration. The Company intends exploring the known occurrences of mineralisation and to undertake a broad-based geophysics and geochemical sampling program simultaneously at all prospects.

WESTERN AUSTRALIA

DINGO RANGE NICKEL PROJECT

BACKGROUND

Following Inca’s listing, via merger with Condor Minerals (“Condor”) in early 2012, the Company reviewed all its Western Australian projects. Only one project, the Dingo Range Nickel Project, was retained for its stand-out Ni potential.

As mentioned in the Company history section of the website, Condor Minerals was formerly called Condor Nickel – a company that had been spun out of the-then-named Karrick Gold. Condor Nickel had assembled a solid portfolio of nickel projects, including the Dingo Range Project. Condor Nickel management had recognised the areas’ Ni potential and pegged the southern third of the Mt Fisher-Dingo Range Greenstone Belt , prior to Rox Resources’ Ni discoveries that were to come later 2012.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AT DINGO RANGE

In December 2013, the Company commissioned Grant “Rocky” Osborne to undertake detailed literature research with the purpose of critically assessing past exploration conducted in the broader Dingo Range Project area. Rocky was instrumental in the discovery the Rocky’s Reward Ni deposit, located north of the Perseverance nickel mine (seen in Figure 2).

Management

Ross Brown

Managing Director

Bsc (Hons) M Ausimm Maicd

A geologist by profession, Ross has had over 26 years’ experience in mineral exploration in Australia, Asia, Africa and South America and he has worked in a broad range of commodities, including gold, base metals, uranium, phosphate and diamonds. Ross has a rare ability in recognising the commercial potential of exploration projects and geological process, and has a proven track record of bringing technical-based exploration concepts and projects to market.

In 2009 Ross co-founded the gold/copper exploration company, Mystic Sands Pty Ltd, which was established for the purposes of conducting exploration in Chile, South America. With the assistance of other technical management Ross was responsible for the composition of the initial project portfolio. Mystic Sands was purchased by Australian-listed explorer White Star Minerals. As part of the transaction, Sandfire Resources NL became a shareholder of Whinnen as consideration for providing technical services to the company.

In 2006 Ross developed an innovative exploration model for “Langer Heinrich-style” uranium mineralisation that was used as a basis for global project acquisitions in 2006 and 2007. These projects were packaged into Oklo Uranium Limited, which completed a successful $8M IPO on the Australian Stock Exchange in May 2007.

In 2001 Ross created the diamond company, Central Kimberley Diamonds (“CKD”), which was listed on the German stock exchange, raising $3.9M. The company enjoyed several technical and milestone successes including the discovery of a large diamond-bearing gravel deposit and the production of diamonds from its own mine. In 2011 CKD was bought by an Australian exploration company who intends listing on AIM in London.

Ross turned his attention to Peru in 2009 and through his network of Peruvian-based businessmen and geologists assessed the potential of more than a hundred projects. Ross immediately recognised the great potential of mineral discovery in that country and recognised the potential of Inca’s lead project, Chanape, from being a known polymetallic deposit to being that of a potentially large gold-silver-copper porphyry deposit.

Ross was the co-founder and Managing Director of Urcaguary Ltd, the Company’s fully owned subsidiary (formerly called Inca Minerals Ltd) and he became the Company’s Managing Director after its merger with Condor Metals.

Ross has been a member of AusIMM since 1988, and is also a member of GSA, SEG and AICD.
